If emissions checks aren't a concern, go for it. Take out the air pump and cat too, as the pump's useless without the ACV, and the cat will clog and die quickly without the air injection.

What about the pressure sensor, and all the other connectors, my air pump and main cat are gone. MY question now is what all do I have to do if I remove the AVC, EGR?, BAC? next question whats the best material to make a block off plate out of? will aluminum suffice?

Tee the pressure sensor line into the BOV line. Make sure the pill is still in the pressure sensor line.

Just answered this here. EGR's the same; just remove, block hole with plate, cap vac line.
whats the best material to make a block off plate out of? will aluminum suffice?
Ali's fine, ~3mm thick
